Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved sports shoe.
  • Sports shoes such as ski boots, are currently usually produced by injecting plastics at suitable molds in order to obtain a shell and at least one quarter.
  • French patent no. 2,119,653 discloses a method for manufacturing a ski shoe, comprising a shell and a quarter joined in a single element, which is composed of an outer element and an inner element which are made of two materials and are mutually associated.
  • the inner element made of generally rigid plastics, forms at least part of the sole and part of the covering of the ankle and is also open along its front part.
  • the outer element made of generally flexible plastics, forms the sole, the front part of the foot, the upper, the heel, a rear part, a covering for the ankle, the foot instep and the part that surrounds the ankle.
  • This manufacturing method has the drawback that it requires the insertion of the inner element in the outer element.
  • the inner element has a uniform degree of rigidity in practically all the regions that surround the foot, except for the upper part, so that optimum fit cannot be achieved.
  • the sole of this shoe which is in contact with the ski is entirely made of rigid plastics, and this further increases the weight of the shoe.
  • US patent 3,545,103 discloses a closure device for ski boots comprising a metal side plate that laterally surrounds the outer part of the foot and with which a cuff is rotatably associated.
  • said plate stiffens the boot to a certain extent, it nonetheless does not allow optimum transmission of efforts since it is affected by the tension applied to the lever and affects only the lateral region of the foot.
  • this solution in any case does not allow optimum transmission of efforts from the foot to the ski due to the limited region of the foot affected by the plate.
  • US patent 3,067,531 discloses a ski boot composed of a sole to which an inner quarter and an outer quarter are connected; two engagement elements are interposed between said quarters and are arranged longitudinally with respect to them.
  • the inner and outer quarters are in turn associated, by means of a pivot, to a curved fixed element which is located approximately below the malleolar region, again in the interspace between the two quarters.
  • Italian patent no. 1,051,302 discloses a ski boot made of plastics which is essentially constituted by two bodies which mutually overlap along lateral joining lines and are kept in this closed position by fastening means.
  • the purpose of this solution is to provide a process for manufacturing the boot in a mold without a back draft.
  • the boot comprises parts allowing to adapt it to the devices for fastening it to the ski, as well as a framework formed by thick and rigid ribs and by thin flat portions connecting the ribs.
  • the illustrated embodiment is constituted by multiple elements which must be assembled, thus increasing manufacturing costs.
  • the arrangement and configuration of the ribs still subjects the boot to slight deformations during sports practice which do not allow optimum transmission of efforts to the ski.
  • Italian patent application no. 82513 A/87 filed on February 25, 1987 in the name of the same Applicant, discloses a ski boot constituted by a semirigid innerboot with which it is possible to associate at least one first rigid element.
  • the rigid element partially surrounds the lower and lateral regions of the semirigid innerboot.
  • Two second rigid elements are arranged at the sides of the semirigid innerboot and are rotatably associated with the first rigid element and articulated thereto.
  • This solution was designed specifically for use together with a central binding rigidly coupled to the ski; coupling between the binding and the boot occurred by means of a lateral engagement.
  • this solution is specific for a particular type of coupling to a ski binding and cannot be transferred directly to a conventional ski boot.
  • This solution is essentially constituted by three rigid elements which must be coupled to each other and to the semirigid innerboot.
  • French patent no. 2,629,691 discloses a ski boot comprising an articulation, in the form of rivets, located at the front articulation of the foot, and a shell which oscillates at the articulation, where the boot is constituted by a rigid part that affects the tip and the sole of the foot.
  • a quarter is rotatably associated with the shell and a securing device allows to close the instep together with the heel and the ankle.
  • the structure also comprises external supports which protrude laterally with respect to the rigid part starting from the regions of the tip and of the heel and converge so as to form an essentially triangular structure, approximately at the upper end of the quarter and thus above the point where said quarter is articulated to the shell.
  • Devices for adjusting the movement and inclination of the quarter can also be associated at the apex of the triangles.
  • the shape of the rigid structure thus mainly acts as a guide and articulation for the shell during jumps, whereas the outer supports do not allow optimum transmission of efforts from the foot to the ski, since the heel region is free and the quarter is slideable with respect to said supports.
  • European patent no. 466,032 discloses the assembly of a boot which combines a flexible shoe, to allow walking, with a frame for the flexible shoe which is associable with the bindings of a ski.
  • the frame has a single plate, which acts as a sole, interacts with the ski bindings, and has a hollow tip and means for connection to the shoe.
  • Two mutually articulated arms also protrude laterally from the plate, and the upper arm frontally surrounds the tibial region of the shoe.
  • WO 92/16120 discloses a ski boot comprising a support that can be fixed to the leg above the ankle and is connected to the sole by means of a bar.
  • the support is shaped like a mask that can be fixed to, and cooperates with, at least one part of the shell and is connected to the bar, preferably at a level located between two closed portions of said mask, by means of a bracket that approximately comprises half of the circumference of the leg.
  • the bar is laterally provided with two arms the lower parts whereof are associated at the heel region of the shell.
  • the quarter in fact has no particular lateral rigidity characteristics due to the material of which it is normally made, and on the other hand the oscillation it can perform does not allow optimum transmission of efforts to the ski, since the function related to varying the inclination obtainable for said quarter is privileged.
  • FR-A-2 653 310 discloses a plastic material ski boot comprising a shell, and front and rear quarters pivotally connected to the shell and provided with means for releasably closing the quarters about a user's lower leg.
  • a pair of rigid U-shaped brackets are provided each having a lower end which is pivoted to the shell at the sole, or in alternative embodiments adjacent the pivot of the quarters to the shell.
  • the brackets thus extend upwardly from the malleolar region, either directly or from below at the sole, to the upper part of the respective quarters where they wrap around the front part and rear part of the quarters.
  • the rear and front quarters may be made in a soft plastic material for increasing comfort while the rigid brackets provide rigidity to the quarters particularly at the upper regions thereof where the brackets wrap around the quarters.
  • EP-A-0 430 821 discloses a plastic material ski boot which is similar to that disclosed in FR-A-2 653 310, except that only a rear rigid U-shaped bracket is provided for the rear quarter, and in addition there is provided a rigid arc portion which overlies the heel region of the boot.
  • US-A-3 807 062 discloses an athletic boot in which an inner molded shell is formed of a rigid material and an outer shell of flexible material is molded about the inner shell.
  • the inner shell provides rigidity at a toe box, sole, hell, back and ankle-covering portions.
  • the inner shell provides rigidity only at a toe portion with a projecting lip, a sole, and a heel.
  • US-A-3 636 642 discloses a ski boot formed of a soft material upper and an external reinforcing structure formed of metal elements extending essentially vertically from the ankle, and plastic straps extending from the metal elements respectively forwardly and rearwardly above the ankle and forwardly and rearwardly below the ankle.
  • the reinforcing structure is removable to permit the ski boot to be used as a normal shoe for walking.
  • the aim of the present invention is to solve the described technical problems, eliminating the drawbacks of the prior art by providing a sports shoe that allows to achieve optimum transmission of efforts from the leg to the sports implement, such as a ski, roller skate, etc..
  • an important object is to provide a shoe which is structurally simple but ensures highly efficient transmission of efforts for optimum control of the sports implement and maintains good comfort for the user's foot and leg.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a sports shoe that, despite the use of plastics, has the desired degree of stiffness and a low weight.
  • Another important object is to provide a shoe which associates with the preceding characteristics that of optimizing effort distribution without being excessively stiffened, so as to avoid limiting leg movements during sports practice.
  • Another object is to provide a shoe which has low manufacturing costs and does not substantially alter, but indeed improves, the overall aesthetic characteristics. Another object is to provide a shoe that allows the user to customize the degree of transmission of efforts to the sports implement.
  • the ski boot is schematically designated by the reference numeral 1 and is constituted by at least one quarter 3 associated with a shell 2 by means of adapted studs.
  • the ski boot comprises at least one rigid element, designated by the reference numeral 4, and formed monolithically with the shell 2 or as a separate part.
  • the material used to produce the rigid element 4 can be the most appropriate according to the specific requirements and can thus have the desired degree of rigidity or elasticity.
  • the rigid element 4 is formed by a single part, it is preferably associable at the sole 5 and at the shell 2.
  • the rigid element 4 is preferably shaped like an inverted V which thus forms a first side 6 and a second side 7 that run respectively from the heel region 8 and from the region 9 of the first and fourth metatarsal bones.
  • the dimensions of the rigid element 4 are such that its vertex 10 is located approximately at the malleolar region 11.
  • First tabs 12 and second tabs 13 are associated respectively with the free ends of the first side 6 and of the second side 7, are arranged on a plane which is approximately at right angles to the plane of arrangement of the first and second sides, and protrude towards the shell 2.
  • the rigid element 4 is preferably applied at the inner side of the foot.
  • the rigid element 4 is also associable at the sole 5 and at the shell 2, and the first and second tabs can be located inside suitable complementarily shaped first and second seats 14 and 15 formed transversely with respect to the sole 5 at the heel region 8 and at the region 9 of the first and fourth metatarsal bones.
  • connection of the rigid element 4 to the shell 2 is temporary, since it is possible to form a first hole 16 and a second hole 17 at the first and second tabs respectively and a third hole 18 and a fourth hole 19 on the sole 5, at the first seat 14 and at the second seat 15, for connection to the first and second tabs by means of suitable screws or rivets.
  • a fifth hole 20 is formed at the vertex 10 of the rigid element 4 to fix the rigid element 4 to the shell 2 and advantageously to articulate the quarter 3 to the shell 2 approximately at the axis 21 of the malleolus.
  • the rigid element is obtained by means of a shaped plate, but it can be formed using the most suitable shape according to the specific requirements and thus can be formed by using a rod.
  • a feature of the rigid element 4 resides in that its first side 6 and its second side 7 are arranged in directions along which efforts extend and are transmitted from the leg/foot unit to the binding/ski assembly through the boot.
  • the rigid element, and the first and second sides 6 and 7, which have a greater rigidity than the shell, allow optimum transmission of efforts to the sole 5, which can be more rigid than the shell and thus again transmit efforts in an optimum manner directly to the bindings connected to the ski.
  • the use of the rigid element allows to maintain the comfort which is typical of a conventional boot made of plastics, combining it with the possibility to transmit in an optimum manner the efforts applied by the foot from the foot to the sole of the boot and thus to the ski bindings.
  • the possibility to temporarily associate the rigid element with the shell also allows the user to change the rigid element according to his specific anatomical characteristics or according to his skill level in skiing technique.
  • the shape of the rigid element which thus substantially affects the heel region, the region of the first and fourth metatarsal bones, and the malleolar region, is such as not to interfere with the other characteristics of the boot, for example with the oscillating movement of the quarter and therefore also with the walking period that follows sports practice.
  • the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a sports shoe having been provided wherein the rigid element extending from the malleolar regions to the regions of the heel and of the first and fourth metatarsal bones, allows, by virtue of the connection of said rigid element to the shell and to the sole, optimum transmission of efforts from the leg and from the foot to the sole and thus, by means of the bindings, to the sports implement, allowing the user to select the transmission strength according to his/her anatomical or technical requirements.
  • the rigid element also does not interfere with the accessory functions of the shoe, such as, for example in the case of ski boots, the pivoting of the quarter to the shell or the level of comfort for the skier's leg.
  • the rigid element is also structurally very simple and can be associated in an equally simple manner at the sole and at the shell so that it can even be optionally easily replaced by the skier.
  • the rigid element therefore is also an aesthetic element that can be customized by the user.
  • Figures 4 and 5 illustrate another embodiment of a ski boot 201, wherein the rigid element 204 still comprises a first side 206, second side 207, first tabs 212, second tabs 213, and also a bar 224. Also bar 224 is rigid and is essentially C-shaped. Bar 224 can be arranged below the sole 205, in order to give greater torsional rigidity to the sole of the boot.
  • Said bar 224 has a longitudinal extension that is equal to the interspace between the first and second tabs.
  • Adapted seventh holes 226a and 226b are formed on said bar at the tabs 225a and 225b and have an axis that coincides with the axis of the first and second holes 216 and 217 and of the third and fourth holes 218 and 219.
  • the bar 224 can be arranged at an adapted third seat 227 which is connected to, and joins, the first seats 214 and the second seats 215 so that it is located inside the sole 205.
  • the bases can, for example, be associated below the sole at adapted seats formed therein.
  • Figures 8 and 9 illustrate another embodiment of a ski boot 301 wherein the rigid element 304 has first tabs 312 and second tabs 313 which can be arranged at an adapted first insert 328 and at a second insert 329. Inserts 328 and 329 can be arranged inside the first seats 314 and the second seats 315 formed at the heel region 308 and at the region 309 of the first and fourth metatarsal bones.
  • first tabs 312 and the second tabs 313 can be arranged within adapted slots 330a and 330b, formed on the surfaces of the first and second inserts which face them.
  • the first and second inserts can have such a shape that they can partially protrude at the heel 331 and/or at the toe 332 and/or at the other side of the sole 305, by means of adapted additional fourth seats 333, formed on said sole 305.
  • the purpose of the first and second inserts is to transmit efforts from the foot to the ski in an even more effective manner, since the rigid structure, constituted by the element 304 and by the inserts 328 and 329, reaches the region for connection to the bindings.
  • Figures 10 and 11 illustrate a boot 401 wherein the rigid element 404 is Y-shaped, with the vertex 410 of the first side 406 and of the second side 407 again arranged at the malleolar region 411 and associated in said region with the shell 402 for example by means of a first rivet 434.
  • the rigid element 404 also has a stem 435 that extends from the vertex 410 longitudinally with respect to the stem 403 until it protrudes beyond the upper perimetric edge 436 of said quarter and is then associated with a third tab 437 of the shell 402 by means of a second rivet 438.
  • the end of the stem 435 may be disconnected from the shell or may be connected both to the shell and to the quarter, an adapted slot being formed on said quarter to allow its rotation, about an axis centered on the studs 439, with respect to said shell.
  • Figure 12 illustrates a ski boot 501 wherein the rigid element 504 is again Y-shaped but wherein the stem 535 is separate and associated with the first side 506 and with the second side 507, at the fifth hole 520 formed on the vertex 510.
  • the stem 535 is thus constituted by a plate on a first end 540 whereof there is a longitudinal slot 541 for articulation to the shell 502 at the fifth hole 520.
  • the second end 542 of the stem 535 is instead fixed to the quarter 503.
  • the slot 541 allows to vary, with adapted per se known means, the lateral inclination of the quarter with respect to the shell, known as "canting".
  • the reference numeral 601 designates a ski boot constituted by a quarter 603 associated with a shell 602.
  • both parts have a first rigid grid-like frame 604 and a second rigid grid-like frame 605.
  • the first rigid grid-like frame 604 which belongs to the shell 602, lies along first directrices 606 which are inclined with respect to the resting surface of the sole 607 and connect the region 608 of the tip of the sole 607 to the region 609 that lies above the heel 610 of the foot.
  • the first directrices preferably affect both sides of the first grid-like frame 604.
  • the frame also has second directrices 611 which are inclined with respect to the resting surface of the sole 607 and connect the region 612 which is adjacent to the heel of the sole 607 to the first directrices 606 towards the foot instep region 613.
  • the second directrices 611 in order to cross the first directrices 606, accordingly form an acute angle with respect to the resting surface of the sole 607, assuming a clockwise rotation to be positive.
  • the second grid-like frame 605 that belongs to the quarter 603, it has at least two lateral openings 614a and 614b having, in the particular embodiment, an essentially teardrop-like shape the longitudinal axis whereof is essentially vertical with respect to the ground.
  • the shell 602 and the quarter 603 are also constituted by a first covering element 615 and by a second covering element 616 which are soft and are injected in place or associated at said first frame and at said second frame respectively.
  • the second covering element 616 is associated with the second grid-like frame 605 by means of a mechanical connection, it is advantageously possible to provide, at the second grid-like frame 605, guiding and/or centering means for the second soft covering element 616 suitable to allow it to slide with respect to the second grid-like frame 605.
  • the means can be constituted for example by a first pair of slots 617 and by a second pair of slots 618, formed laterally with respect to the second grid-like frame 605, in a region that is adjacent to the perimetric edge 619 of the second frame.
  • Adapted first pairs of holes 620a, 620b and second pairs of holes 621a, 621b are formed at the first and second pairs of slots on the second covering element 616.
  • An adapted pivot 622 can be arranged at said first and second pairs of slots and at said first and second pairs of holes and acts as a guide for the vertical sliding of the second covering element 616 with respect to the second frame 605.
  • the second frame also has at least two ridges 623 that protrude laterally along an axis which is approximately at right angles to the axis of the first and second pair of slots. Ridges 623 protrude starting from the perimetric edge 619 of the second grid-like frame 605 towards the pair of lateral openings 614a and 614b.
  • One of a plurality of suitable third pairs of mutually parallel slots 624 are formed laterally with respect to the second covering element 616 and are shaped approximately complementarily to the ridges 623. Slots 624 interact with the ridges 623 so as to lock the position of the second covering element 616 with respect to the second rigid frame 605.
  • the skier can thus select the position of the second covering element 616 with respect to the second rigid frame 605, thus obtaining a quarter that can assume different heights according to the requirements of the skier.
  • a fourth slot 628 is formed transversely at the rear region of the second grid-like frame 605 and is arranged at a wing of the first and second seats when the quarter is associated with the shell.
  • a slider 627 has a stem arranged in the fourth slot 628 as well as in the first seat 625 and in the second seat 626, to vary the inclination of the quarter 603 according to the teachings included for example in the prior European patent EP-A-0302414 filed by this same Applicant.
  • the first directrices 606 and the second directrices 611, on the first grid-like frame 604, allow to obtain, in said frame, an adapted second pair of openings 629a, 629b, a third pair of openings 630a, 630b, and a fourth pair of openings 631, which are not affected by the directrices and allow savings in the manufacturing costs and in the weight of the shoe.
  • the second, third, and fourth pairs of openings are closed, thus obtaining soft regions thereat, for supporting the lateral portions of the foot and of the malleoli.
  • the ski boot is also constituted by the sole 607, which also has a grid-like configuration by virtue of the presence of a third directrix 632 and of a fourth directrix 633 which have an essentially concave shape and are arranged mutually opposite.
  • the directrices connect the heel region 634 to the region 635 of the first metatarsal bones and the region 636 of the fifth metatarsal bones.
  • Adapted recesses 637 can also be obtained between the third and fourth directrices to lighten the sole. It is also possible to obtain a bridge 638 for connecting the region 635 and the region 636, as well as an additional recess 637 towards the region 608 of the tip of the sole.
  • suitable depressions 639 can be formed by partially removing material at the heel region 634 and at the regions 635 and 636.
  • the first frame 604 and the second frame 605 also have a fifth directrix 640 which extends to the rear of the heel and calf region.
  • the fifth directrix 640 intersects the first and second directrices at the first frame 604.
  • the fifth directrix 640 delimits the pair of lateral openings 614a and 614b at the second frame 605.
  • the invention has achieved the intended aim and objects, a shoe having been obtained which has both optimum characteristics for the transmission of efforts from the foot to the sports implement and optimum fit for the user, by virtue of the presence of the first and second grid-like frames and of the first and second directrices.
  • the lightening recesses of the structure that is obtained are large since they are provided in the regions that are not affected by the transmission of efforts from the foot to the sports implement.
  • the particular grid-like structure withstands in an optimum manner both torsional and flexural stresses applied, for example while skiing, and can thus reduce the splaying and warping that such stresses generally induce in the structure. This leads to a highly efficient transmission of ski control efforts, thus minimizing the loss of power that occurs during the transfer of these efforts from the leg to the ski due to the unavoidable plays.
  • the performance/cost ratio of the sports shoe is thus maximized, because a better response in effort transmission is combined with the possibility to limit the use of material with high technical characteristics only to the regions affected by the force transmission, thereby also reducing the bulk of the regions of the boot that are not dynamically stressed.
  • An important advantage of the shoe according to the invention is that it can be implemented in several sports, such as roller skating, ice skating, mountain climbing, etc..
